Later, when Emperor Hongzhi came to the throne, it was Xu Pu who proposed to abolish many eunuchs and reduce the power of eunuchs.The most important thing is that Xu Pu is an extremely upright person, even more clean and honest as an official, with almost no stains.One of them laid a solid foundation for Hongzhi Zhongxing.

Xu Pu went through the four dynasties of Jingtai, Tianshun, Chenghua, and Hongzhi, and served as Prime Minister for twelve years. He finally retired after being successful and returned to the Ming Dynasty. It is really admirable!

"Xu Ge is a famous minister of a generation!"

Xie Shen clapped his hands and praised.

Xie Pi also said with emotion: "My father once warned me to follow Xu Ge as an example."

Xie Shen felt helpless in his heart.One of the fathers of these two is Wang Hua and the other is Xie Qian. They are both the second generation of top officials who are rooted in Zheng Miaohong. It is ironic that he is the only student from a poor family in the middle.

Forget it, since you can't be the second-generation official, then work hard to be the second-generation official's father.
"Brother Shenxian, after today's poetry meeting, the three of us have already left a good impression on Chen Tixue. I'm afraid you don't have to worry so much about the college entrance examination. I heard that a new gentleman has arrived in Yichun Building recently, Shen Xian Brother, do you want to go to relax together tomorrow?"

Before Xie Shen could speak, the little loli Erya stepped forward and gave Wang Shouwen a vicious look.

"Go on your own, don't teach my young master badly."

Wang Shouwen rolled his eyes and said, "Since when did you become your son, you little girl changed her mind so quickly."

"I said yes!"

Little Loli thrust her chest forward, her hands were akimbo, her voice was undeniable.

Xie Shen was so teased by her that he couldn't laugh or cry, he endured it for a while before he stepped forward and said: "Okay, okay, what are you fussing about with a little girl, you big man. Besides, the college exam is coming, you go to the Goulan Field to have fun, If it is passed on, it may damage your father's reputation."

Although since the Chenghua Dynasty, the world has gradually become extravagant, and the official discipline is not as strict as the previous dynasty.But after all, it is not a decent thing for the children of officials to go whoring, and if it spreads out, it may damage Wang Hua's reputation.

Wang Shouwen frowned and said, "I forgot about this. Forget it, after the college exam, we brothers can go and have a good time."

He looked at the little loli in surprise, obviously he couldn't believe that the little girl who had been submissive in front of others would become so aggressive after getting acquainted with them.

Little Lolita twisted Wang Shouwen's arm fiercely, and said with great satisfaction: "Go by yourself, don't teach my young master badly."

Wang Shouwen looked aggrieved, and the joy of eating steamed dumplings happily disappeared.

"Hey, brother Shouwen, you eat first, and I will go back to the room with Erya first."

Not wanting to continue to be embarrassed, Xie Shen had no choice but to drag Erya to his own room.

Far away is Wang Shouwen's resentful eyes
Naturally, there was nothing to say all night, and when Xie Shen woke up, the little loli had already prepared the washbasin and square towel by the bedside.The young man was embarrassed to clean up and then said slowly: "Ah, you don't have to be so nice to me."

"What are you talking about, young master? If the young master hadn't come forward to pay off my father's gambling debts for me, I might have been kidnapped by that group of evil people now."

Erya rolled her eyes slightly, and her expression showed a trace of gratitude: "I am now the son of the son, the son is not allowed to drive me away!"

Xie Shen's heart sank.Erya is alone in Shaoxing Mansion and has no one to rely on, and indeed she can only follow herself.

"Okay, I promise you." Xie Shen smiled lightly as a promise.

"Brother Shenxian, brother Shenxian, are you in the house? Come out quickly!"

The tender scene was interrupted by Wang Shouwen's hasty voice, Xie Shen replied with some annoyance: "Got it!"

He really didn't know what the hell Wang Shouwen was going to do early in the morning!

As soon as he left the room, he saw a middle-aged man about forty years old, with a broad forehead and a short beard, standing beside Wang Shouwen.

"This is Xiaoyou Xie, right?"

With a smile on his cheeks, the man cupped his hands slightly, and greeted the boy proactively.

Xie Shen hurriedly bowed his hands and said: "Xie Shen, a student from Yuyao, may I ask your Excellency?"

"Heh, Xia Tan Hui runs a bookstore in Shaoxing City."

Bookstore?Xie Shenzhi was a little surprised, how could the people from the bookstore find Lu's residence?Could it be that Wang Shouwen became greedy and planned to ask himself to sell "The Story of the Stone" to a Shaoxing bookseller again?But Shaoxing Mansion is too close to Yuyao County, even if you want to sell it, you have to find a place far away.

"I heard that Xie Xiaoyou traveled to Green Lake with Chen Tixue and Mr. Lu yesterday and recited several excellent works, so I wanted to come and ask Xie Xiaoyou if he would like to cooperate with a certain person."

It turns out that this person didn't come for "Story of the Stone", that's fine.Although there is no awareness of copyright in this era, Xie Shen will not be so cheap as to sell "The Story of the Stone" to two booksellers.

But he thought about it again, could this person be collecting poems to compile a collection of poems?

In Daming, apart from erotic pictures, poetry collections were the favorite thing for literati to read.

It's just that there are only so many poems and essays in his mind, and they can't be sold at a low price in advance.If you want to do well in the officialdom of Ming Dynasty, prestige is the most important thing.For Xie Shen, it was even more so.His background is inferior to that of other aristocratic families, if he can't make up for his prestige, it will be absolutely impossible for him to have a smooth career.

This person doesn't look like a wealthy businessman, and the price he paid can't be too high.Sell ​​the poems to him all at once, unless Xie Shen is stupid.

"Shopkeeper Tan, it's like this. Xie is going to take the exam in the near future, so I'm afraid I can't write this poem for the time being."

Tan Hui said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, anyway, someone is planning to mix poems into the story book, and only one or two poems are needed for a book. Someone is planning to buy Xie Xiaoyou's poems written yesterday. If Xie Xiaoyou has some poems in the future New works can also be sold to my subordinates."

Xie Shen was taken aback when he heard that, it turned out that Tan Hui didn't come here to fish out the water, but just planned to establish a cooperative relationship, and put the poems he had already written on the front page of the story book as a selling point?
From this point of view, Xie Shen is not at a loss.After all, poetry is a sharp weapon for him to gain reputation.Once the prestige is finished, the maximum benefit of the poems will be used up. If they can be sold to Tan Hui again, it is indeed a second use.
It's just that Tan Hui's news is too well-informed. He just went boating on the Green Lake with two senior officials yesterday and wrote a few poems. Tan Hui chased him today and wanted to buy out the poems.
Suddenly Xie Shen realized something, and turned to look at Wang Shouwen.

Except for this money-greedy Wang Xiaolang, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would leak the news.
